STEEM ATLAS Curation Guidelines | December 2025

in Steem POD Team12 days ago

Greetings Steemit Community!

It's a great pleasure for the Steem Atlas project to be chosen as a community curator team once again. So, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the Steemit team, on behalf of the entire Steem Atlas team.

As you know, there is a minor setback in Steem Atlas in several ways. Anyway, there's still strong popularity for the project among the users. There are numerous initiatives and developments underway in the project, and we receive over 30 posts per day. So, this is a vital requirement for all of us, to promote and growth of the project, and support the users.

You already know that Steem Atlas is an exciting initiative designed to create a global travel map powered by the Steem community, developed by the @pennsif.witness team. It allows you to pin locations you love and share information about them. It's basically a guide about places with real experience.

What we are looking for


The main things we are looking for are posts about a specific place or location, and posts that comply with the 21 tips for the posting guidelines for Steem Atlas.

In addition, Steem Atlas is not limited to tourist destinations; we are open to all types of places and locations that are useful for Steemit users and also users from outside Steemit. We have already seen many places on the search engines like Google, which are published on Steem Atlas, serving as a guide for people.

The content we are looking for includes places like:


  • Tourist attractions and holiday destinations
  • Mountains, lakes, and other natural beauty
  • Museums and art galleries
  • Theatres
  • Sports venues and stadiums
  • Zoos, safari parks, and wildlife sanctuaries
  • Places of worship such as churches, temples, and mosques
  • Eating places such as restaurants, cafes, bars, ...etc
  • Shops, markets, and shopping centers
  • Educational institutions such as universities, schools, and colleges
  • In essence, all the places around you

We are looking for the correct location, quality images, details, and useful information about that specific place. So, you should be careful about the following things.

  • A description of the place, avoid unnecessary greetings and introductions

  • Details of costs such as entry fee, car parking fee, and details of how to get there. Please include the equivalent price in STEEM or US$, or at least the current exchange rate.

  • If there is a shopping center or anything similar, please also mention their return policy.

  • We love photos - but be selective - only use the best photos you have taken, and make them large and clear.

  • Also include links to more information about the place, such as their website and social media details.

  • It's a good idea to include a descriptive caption below each photo.

We are NOT looking for Diary Game posts that happen to mention one or more locations.

So, based on the relevance to our project, we will vote on the posts under the #steem-atlas tag, considering the below general curation guidelines.

  • All posts must be free of plagiarism, and the images must be your own

  • We will strictly consider AI-generated content, which is a high level of abuse. (We will check the posts with the detectors)

  • Users should not be in the power-down state.

The percentage of voting is determined based on the quality of the post and the correct pin location, so it is important to read the guidelines to make your post better.
